M. Jenneskens Vic. Cap. Feb. 1945\". Since Venlo was not liberated until March 1, 1945, these cards were printed in the extremely turbulent final weeks of the occupation. They contain the general prayer of \"Maria's Praying Army\".\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\" data-complete=\"true\" data-copy-service-computed-style=\"font-family: \u0026quot;Google Sans\u0026quot;, \u0026quot;Helvetica Neue\u0026quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px rgb(10, 10, 10);\" data-hveid=\"CAAIChAR\" data-processed=\"true\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"ep\" jsaction=\"\" jscontroller=\"TDBkbc#Ml18Xb\" jsuid=\"WaiHdd_1u\"\u003e• The card at top right (Children's Army - Juc.

It concerns the \"Maria's Praying Children's Army\" with a rhymed prayer for \"Our Boys in the East\". This poem was written by the well-known priest-poet Father Jucundus (Jacques) Schreurs M.S.C., whose life's work later served as the model for the TV series \"Diary of a Hound\". Notable detail: on the back, his official Latin religious name \"Juc. Schreurs M.S.C.\" is printed.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\" data-complete=\"true\" data-copy-service-computed-style=\"font-family: \u0026quot;Google Sans\u0026quot;, \u0026quot;Helvetica Neue\u0026quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px rgb(10, 10, 10);\" data-hveid=\"CAAIChAU\" data-processed=\"true\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"ep\" jsaction=\"\" jscontroller=\"TDBkbc#Ml18Xb\" jsuid=\"WaiHdd_21\"\u003e• The card at bottom left (Different Home Front card):\u003cbr data-complete=\"true\" data-copy-service-computed-style=\"font-family: \u0026quot;Google Sans\u0026quot;, \u0026quot;Helvetica Neue\u0026quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; margin: 0px; text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 0px rgb(10, 10, 10);\" data-processed=\"true\" data-sfc-pl=\"|||[]\" data-sfc-root=\"ep\" jsaction=\"\" jscontroller=\"Gy8rfb#B4oRN\" jsuid=\"WaiHdd_22\"\u003eAlthough this is very similar in text layout to the Jenneskens cards, it completely lacks the specific line with Jenneskens' place name and date at the bottom.
